This is the first book in a series, and there looks to be a lot of set up for the next books. The story really feels like a beginning and I didn't feel as satisfied closing this book as I have with other Cabot stories. There seems to be more going on with this brain transfer than it would initially seem. There should be plenty of fodder there for an interesting series. I particularly like how Meg Cabot seems aware of the current celebrity news and fashion, and it's reflected in this story. I found myself wondering what real life teen idols Cabot had in mind while she created some of these characters.

Overall: Well, this is Meg Cabot, so the story is a light bit of fun. Cabot has a way of writing that's warm and entertaining and has the right voice for a young adult novel, but this one spends so much time setting up the premise for the series so I feel like I got just the beginning of a story. it made me feel unsatisfied, but maybe reading the next book will fix it.
